It's not just about tax revenue or spending from the company and its employees itself, it's the secondary and tertiary economic effects of bringing that many high paying jobs to an area that they are going to massively miss. From everything I read, the majority of NYC resident opinions were that Amazon was welcomed there. This is definitely why you should have some kind of political and economic experience before you step up as a major political leader
lol - dude, you and I both know NYC isn't going to feel anything from this. Anecdotal, but I know literally know one who wanted them here and everyone was more excited that it is now gone. There are plenty of jobs here and it would have stressed an area that was not built for that kind of influx.
We have Hudson Yards opening soon that is already going to bring in a ton of new jobs and corporations.
People were pissed because there was literally no reason to offer an incentive at all. Google is more than doubling their office space here and expanding to new locations (adding nearly 12K positions here) - know how many tax incentives NYC offered? None.
